Bouncing off head is a choice. Not mandatory. Soccer has far better brain stats than football.In American football, the rate of CTE is directly tied to age players started: the younger, the worse. Need to separate the sports, not lump together.

Im hoping for the day when cars dont cross the yellow line, AND automatically stop before a collision. Driving is very risky..... and keeps the adrenaline rushing on my neck of the woods. Very defensive driving required here.

A fellow told me after a long flight home seated next to a doc that just attended a confetemce, doing NO organized sports was linked to longevity. As was gardening and two other factors I no longer remember. Athletic sports are overrated for long term health.

I have never pushed my boys in sports. Just play on a team for fun.


Follow the facts. No mainstream media junk. Avoid government sites, avoid ADA, etc. Find the real studies, with real facts. And dig in. I did.
